We've eyed this ridge for months as we hiked other trails on
either side of the North Ogden Canyon. It's always drawn our
attention as a spot worth seeking out, and to see what views we
might enjoy. We were not dissapointed on any account. It's a great
place to appreciate the beautiful Wasatch Front, plus sweeping
views to the south and west. If you take binoculars with you and
scan the slopes below Ben Lomond Peak, you might even catch a view
of the mountain goats that live there.
From the parking coordinates, make your way up to the "Cairn"
waypoint, included as a photo reference. The cairn marks a narrow
trail leading up the ridge. It winds through trees for a short
distance before emerging into the clear, continuing as an unimpeded
trail to the top of the ridge.
The cache is a cammoed decon container, hanging about 6.5 feet
above ground level, for four season enjoyment. We hope you enjoy
this scenic and rewarding hike.
